Speedhut 2-1/16″ 0-60 PSI Boost Gauge (L2-B6-LEG)

Description

The Speedhut 2-1/16″ 0-60 PSI Boost Gauge (L2-B6-LEG) is a vital instrument for monitoring the performance of turbocharged or supercharged engines. This gauge provides accurate readings of both positive pressure (boost) and negative pressure (vacuum) within the intake manifold, allowing you to keep a close eye on your engine’s health and performance. Designed for reliability and precision, it utilizes a high-quality pressure sender and comes with all the necessary components for installation.

KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS:

• Accurate Measurement: Provides precise readings of boost pressure from 0 to 60 PSI and also measures vacuum.
• Reliable Sensor: Features a 3-wire military-grade transducer, ensuring consistent and accurate pressure readings under various operating conditions.
• Standard Size: With a 2-1/16 inch (52mm) diameter, it fits seamlessly into most standard aftermarket gauge pods and mounting solutions.
• Complete Wiring: Ships with a 3 ft power and lighting harness for LED illumination and a dedicated 3-wire cable for connecting the pressure sensor.
• Included Sensor: Comes with a robust 100 PSI pressure sensor, offering a higher measurement capability for potential future needs or data logging (though the gauge face displays up to 60 PSI).
• Easy Integration: Designed for straightforward installation in a variety of vehicles with forced induction.

SPECIFICATIONS:

• Gauge Type: Boost/Vacuum Gauge
• Range: 0-60 psi
• Size: 2 1/16 inch (52mm)
• Hole Size: 2.062 inches (52mm)
• Pressure Sender Type: 3-Wire Military Grade Transducer (Performance)
• Standard or Metric: Standard
• Warning Light: No
• Ships With:
• 3 ft Power & Lighting Harness – for LED Lit Gauges and Clocks
• Pressure Gauge Wiring Harness (3-Wire Cable)

HOW TO USE:

• Mount the Gauge: Securely install the 2-1/16 inch gauge into a suitable mounting location in your vehicle using a gauge pod or panel designed for this size. Ensure the mounting location allows for proper wiring access.
• Connect the Power and Lighting Harness: Connect the 3 ft power and lighting harness to a suitable 12V power source in your vehicle. This harness will provide power for the gauge’s operation and illumination. Ensure proper grounding.
• Install the Pressure Sensor: Mount the included 100 PSI pressure sensor in a location on your engine’s intake manifold that allows for accurate measurement of boost and vacuum pressure. Typically, this involves tapping into a vacuum/boost reference line.
• Connect the Pressure Sensor Wiring: Connect the 3-wire cable from the pressure sensor to the corresponding terminals on the back of the boost/vacuum gauge. Ensure a secure and correct connection as per the gauge’s wiring diagram (refer to the manufacturer’s instructions if available).
• Test the Gauge: Once all connections are made, start your vehicle and observe the gauge readings. Under normal idling conditions, you should see a vacuum reading. As the engine is revved or the turbo/supercharger engages, the gauge should display positive boost pressure.
